Steinberg VST Instruments Vertigo Cello is a comprehensive and versatile tool for sculpting textures fitting for film but feeling equally at home with producers looking for organic, rough and unique timbres.

Vertigo Cello provides 15 different sound sources, all of which can be mixed, tuned and panned individually. These sounds include regular cello playing, fragile playing, special techniques like harmonics and sul pont playing, tremolo, and resynthesized sounds.

The master section of Vertigo Cello offers controls for attack, decay, tone, swirl, tape, and reverb. These controls allow you to shape the overall sound of the instrument and create anything from cozy warm pads to rougher soundscapes.

Vertigo Cello

Vertigo Cello is another addition to our symphonic range.

As a further member of our Vertigo series it inherits similar sonic

characteristics, namely the warm and gritty tones of the Vertigo instruments.

We put a lot of effort into creating a diverse range of articulations allowing

the user to blend from subtle tones to more experimental soundscapes.

The effects section of our Vertigo engine enables you to tweak sounds

to create anything from cozy warm pads to rougher sounds.

All in all, the Vertigo Cello is a versatile and easy to use tool for

sculpting textures ﬁtting for ﬁlm but feeling equally at home with

producers looking for organic, rough and unique timbres.

Vertigo Cello in detail

All of these sounds are equipped with a separate volume slider, a pitch slider

covering a range from -12 to 12 semitones, a pan-pot and a solo button.

Solo lets the corresponding

instrument play in solo

mode

Panning lets the corresponding

instrument pan from left

to right

Volume controls the volume

of the corresponding

instrument

Tuning sets the speciﬁc interval (pitch) of the corresponding

instrument in relation to the played key(s)

Interval Lock on the left of the instrument slots you can click onto INVAL in order to lock the

Interval Section so preset changes won’t have an effect on this section

The controls of the master section:

Reset sets the entire instrument back to the default values

Dice sets all(!) parameters randomly

Presets a click on the name will open the preset menu

Previous/ Next by clicking on these arrows you will get to the previous/ next preset

Attack controls the attack of all instruments

Decay controls the decay/ release of all instruments

Tone This EQ is a kind of low/high bell EQ. Turning counterclockwise will boost the

low and reduce the high frequencies. Turning the knob clockwise will achieve

the opposite.

Swirl lets you play the entire sound through a slow running rotary speaker

simulation (100% is pure wet)

Tape lets you play the entire sound through an old tape echo (100% is pure wet)

Reverb controls the amount of reverb. By clicking on the name below the slider you

can select the type of reverb out of 6 different variations. There are six

different types: Room, Wood, Chamber, Hall, Church and Inﬁnite

Main controls the overall volume level of a tape saturation (Gain and Output)

MW by activating this function, Vertigo Cello will be volume controlled by the

mod wheel.

The mod wheel controls the main volume as well as slightly changes the tone

(from low to high). Furthermore the engine activates the dynamic layer of all

corresponding instruments. The maximum boundary of the mod wheel is set

by the value when the MW is turned off.

Vertigo Cello is a wonderful tool to easily achieve inspiring as well as unique

string ensemble sounds. It gives you a rich and deep sonic experience.
